I have been complaining about this guy for about three years now. He has two other eBay ID's. One is "fourducks" and the other is "theolestuff".

I have complained to eBay numerous times and the only thing they have done is taken down a couple of his listings.

A LOT of people need to complain to eBay about him and then the buyers who have been scammed need to complain and also sue. However, this is hard to do since he has PRIVATE auctions, so it is hard to contact the buyers.

Unless he has several of these, this is the same item which has sold twice previously (and was returned). If this were legit, I'd love to have it, but I have my doubts....

I have just sent my complaints! Please others do as well, lets make this a team effort and put our grading differences aside for a change. Oh that's right, I am the only one who doesn't believe in 3rd party grading.

Dan... I don't believe in it either, and I will file a complaint with Ebay right now

Opinions on grading are irrelevant to this matter, so hopefully lots will join in the effort to get these bogus listings (and hopefully this seller) shut down.

Dan -

Did you ascertain that the item was bogus soley by the seller's identity - or was there also some sort of indication of such visible from the scan? Looking to get educated. Thanks.

What's the Ebay screen name for this seller? The item has been removed and the link just goes to an "Invalid Item" page.

Acofind is one of his ebay ID's...I'm unsure of the others right now.

From one of the above posts -

He has two other eBay ID's. One is "fourducks" and the other is "theolestuff".

That's a good sign it was fake!

Actually, if it's just a fake that would be the hardest thing to get Ebay to remove. Usually things are removed because the guy's title or description violates Ebay's listing rules in some minor way.

Ken, it was an obvios fake by site, falsely aged and a million fakes have been offered. The kenwell glove ad is fake in cardboard and real in metal, the seller is acofind and is a complete slime piece of trash.

Thanks Dan. I'm reasonably confident spotting shenanigans with cards. However, with more esoteric pieces, unless it's from a known scammer such as Acofind, it's much tougher for the unitiated.

Don't feel bad Ken, I first learned of the Tuxedo fakes by buying 3 of them and then fighting to get my money back. Same as I just learned that the deceivers are now making T200's on photo paper, another brilliant purchase by the r337man! I am on a roll!
